Epic

I live on the Fylde Coast & that gets hammered every other month by "foreign" promoters !!!

Tamla Motown "bootleg" their own records then !!!! Who should they sue ?

How do you view the UK single release of "Baby Hit & Run" by The Contours ? Released purely via demand from the northern scene.

Was it off this ? https://www.discogs.com/Detroit-Sound-Big-Band-Soul/release/1648494

Have used these guys for the last few years. Very helpful & reasonably priced too. https://www.djguard.co.uk/

Learn how to (walk) uhuh, (talk) oh yeah, (Eat), I'm hungry, (sleep), I'm sleepy, You really got me well trained, I'm like a (puppet on a string) You speak to me and then my poor heart a' flutters, (Gino) You call my name and then I melt like butter, You really got me well trained, I'm like a (puppet on a string) You walk my way and then my smile grows longer, You touch my hand and then my heart is beating stronger, You really got me well trained, I'm like a (puppet on a string) You turn me off and you turn me on, You make me weak and you make a' me strong, Without your power I couldn't exist, And I'd give my life by cutting my wrists. You speak to me and then I light up like a sign, (Gino) You call my name I'll come near you like a rock, You truly got me well trained, I'm like a (puppet on a string) (Walk) uhuh, (talk) oh yeah, (Eat), I'm hungry, (sleep), I'm sleepy, You really got me well trained, I'm like a (puppet on a string)

Sad news indeed - multi talented - thankyou for the music Sir - may you rest in peace & reflect on a job well done.

Who the hell buys all this "tat" from the ever increasing "tat" mountain. The music is, & will always be fabulous but the circus that the Northern Soul Scene has now become I find very sad - the best "memorabilia" is in our heads. I don't need a 24 piece dinner service to remind me that I like Tamla Motown !!!

Agreed - brilliant record - always very "muddy" in the mix - don't think it was the finished article. Similarly with the Eddie Holman tracks - work in progress - but great also !!!

Initially Ian if I remember & Colin probably did from late 74 - early 75 to when he left.

They are cheap because they are not rare !!! There are plenty of overrated records that are expensive - plenty of records been played on the scene that are simply "not good enough" - that never stopped them from being played !!!

Never been "massive" but what a great tune !!!!

Yes - Yes & Yes !!!!!

I stopped once to listen to Geoffrey Meteliko's version - very painful !!!

Bill Bush - "I'm Waiting" - yes Bill I am waiting for the day that record sounds good. Probably the day after hell freezes over !!! However it is measurably better than the turd which is Julian Covey - "A Little Bit Hurt" - The sound of a vasectomy without an anesthetic would be more pleasing to my ears !!!

Like his version of "Love Love Love"

I asked earlier in this thread - who are the DJs in The Modern Room ? Any answers ?

This is where it all gets confusing !!!! Tomangoes on Grapevine - not rare !!!! Tomangoes on Washpan - how rare ??? Answers on the back of a CDR please !!!!

Can't see a list of DJs - anybody know who they are ? Any "modern" acts on ?
